How can teletherapy work? How can you provide care remotely?

I am passionate about working with people who want to find their most authentic selves. I work to meet people where they are and to help them learn tools to reach the goals they set for themselves. I work with individuals, adults and adolescents, as well as couples. I am an eclectic therapist and individualize therapy to what the clients needs. I have extensive training in addictions and is excited about the opportunity to work with clients to help them envision the life they want. The best part of my job is when I get to see progress a client makes. Supervised by Leigh Rainwater, LPC-S.

Are you stressed? Are you finding it hard to navigate what life is bringing you? Are your relationships suffering? If you responded "yes" to any of these questions, I would love to help you! Stress, anxiety, depression, and a host of other troubles can be a challenging yet normal part of life. Handling these issues on your own can make them seem insurmountable. You do not have to go it alone when counseling is available. I offer culturally competent counseling in a non-judgmental, supportive environment. Using multiple therapy modalities, I help individuals, couples, and families with issues such as Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Grief & Loss, Relationship Issues, and Trauma. I also specialize in working with men and couples on a host of issues that impact wellness. Life can be a challenge! Relationships, competing priorities, various issues in society, and work-life stress can all become overwhelming. I want to help you gain more balance, harmony, positive health, and wellness. You are too valuable to suffer in silence. Together, let's work to create the joyous life you deserve.

Congratulations on taking the bold step to healing and knowing yourself better, which leads to you feeling empowered and having more control over your life! My clinical practice is rooted in trauma-informed care with populations across the lifespan (childhood through adulthood). I possess a wide range of clinical experience, with adults experiencing severe mental health concerns, college students in multiple settings children, adolescents & families in mental health agencies and school settings. Each experience has provided me with a strong counseling skillset. I utilize person centered theory, interpersonal psychotherapy, and eco-systemic structural family therapy, and trauma-informed care. These approaches allow me to more fully understand important components of a client’s life and their impact. Unconditional positive regard and authenticity is essential to my approach as I empower and empathize with clients I will always respect, empathize, and empower clients from all cultural backgrounds. Every human is different, and their counseling plan will be tailored to who they are emotionally, socially, spiritually, ethnically, etc. If you are struggling, I aim to walk alongside you and help you to reach your goals!

Hi, I’m Stephanie. As a therapist, I believe that my clients already hold the answers to their concerns. In my role, I aim to create a safe space for the emotional growth needed for you to realize the vast possibilities for your life and wellbeing.

I wholeheartedly believe in the process of authentic connection. With a multicultural background, I recognizes each person is uniquely multifaceted. My approach to therapy is to meet you wherever you’re at in life, get curious about you, and then serve as YOUR team to journey alongside you. The goal is to provide a safe empathetic space where you are respected and honored, so that internal self-explorations can begin, and to foster creative evolutions towards intentionality, self-discovery, self-empowerment, and healing. The focus is your growth & thriving towards being the best version(s) of yourself that you like to be. With 5 years’ experience in community mental health, psychiatric facility, and prison systems altogether, I have supported youths & adults with assessments, skills training, and therapy for individual, family, and group. I utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy, EMDR, & person-centered insights to address a wide range of concerns. People deserve to be believed in, with their worth and potential supported, so that each one of us can live fulfilled, so I work towards breaking the stigma of mental health one conversation at a time. I also enjoy globetrotting, reading, tea, video games, and loves hedgehogs.

Are you struggling with your faith? Do you feel like you don’t belong in church or anywhere? Encounters is a counseling agency for people who have been there. That deep dark pit and cannot find their way out. We welcome your doubts and questions, and we don’t expect you to wear a fake smile. At Encounters, no one is perfect, and we are not full of imperfect people; We always have room for more! We are a non-denominational Christian Counseling and Substance Use Treatment Agency. We offer a lot here; we have State Certified domestic violence and anger management programs. In addition, our Intensive Outpatient Program for substance use is certified through the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Agency (SAPTA). God does not have a single prescribed way to worship Him. While some traditional practices have developed over time, they are not necessarily the only or best way to connect with God. We need to find new ways to worship that are meaningful and relevant to us today, and that is where the Life Altering Skills come in. We want everyone who comes into Encounters Counseling and Recovery to have an encounter with the faithful love and mercy of Jesus, but we will settle for an encounter with yourself. We hope that by coming to Encounters Counseling and Recovery you will learn what it is to be Forgiven: Forgiveness and eternal life are available to all who accept God’s grace through Jesus Christ. It is not God who rejects us, but us who reject God. Salvation: Salvation is a gift from God that we receive through faith in Jesus Christ. When we trust in Jesus and confess our sins to him we are forgiven of our sins and made right with God. (You will learn more). We were all created to have relationships. We did not get sick by ourselves, and we do not heal by ourselves, we heal in community. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

I help people from all walks of life reduce feelings of overwhelm and discomfort by growing their confidence, achieving their personal goals and being able to bring their best selves to their relationships. Life can be challenging--and we are not meant to go through it without a good support system. I will be part of that support for you, and most importantly, show you how to realize your own internal strengths that you can tap into whenever life throws you a curve ball. You already have everything you need and I can show you how to find it. Your access to mental healthcare shouldn’t be limited by your bank account. If you have questions about cost, coverage or are trying to figure out how to choose the right therapist, please connect with us for a free brief consultation. There are options--my priority is to help those seeking care to connect with a therapist that feels like the right fit. Now is the time to heal what is paining you from your past and finally give yourself the confidence to communicate your needs effectively, love yourself unconditionally and maintain healthy boundaries with the people in your life.

After 20 yrs in the legal field I decided I wanted to help people on a deeper level and not just be the band-aid for their problems.
